Dear colleagues,
I have been using VASP, but I find there are errors in double well energy curve 
for BaTiO3.  For the same structure, I can obtain the double well energy curve 
via SIESTA code. As a result, I turn to SIESTA. Now I am calculating the 
effects of external electric field on the electronic structure and polarization 
of bulk BaTiO3 via Siesta. I have added the “ExternalElectricField” according 
to the manual. 
But after taking a series of run, the results are all same for different 
electric field in range of 0.001~0.1 V/Ang. I don’t know where I am wrong; 
could someone give me a hand? The attached is my input file.  
I also appreciate it if someone helps me about the calculation of polarization.
Thank you!
 
Regards,
Bingcheng Luo
